His son, Asad, who is working in Croatia, is expected to reach Mumbai later on Wednesday and the funeral shall be performed at the Nariyalwadi Cemetery, Byculla on Thursday afternoon. Tall, thin and lanky, with a hippie style haircut, Razak Khan was first seen in Roop Ki Rani, Choron Ka Raja in 1993, and later appeared in comic roles in many movies. More than his real name, his screen character names — Lucky Chikna, Keshav, Manikchand, Fainku, Babu Bisleri, Popatwala — became his trademark as he enacted memorable comic scenes besides some of the biggest actors. Among his notable roles were in movies like Kyaa Kool Hain Hum series, don Kabira’s sidekick in Baadshah, Raja Hindustani, Hello Brother, Hera Pheri, Phir Hera Pheri, Bhagam Bhaag, Ankhiyon Se Goli Mare, Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya, Loha and Ishq. The film fraternity expressed shock at Razak’s demise over Twitter:
